Jeg bare skriver her så at jeg ikke må gjøre leksene. ;)

I do as instructed by robtengel and do meme. xD


A. List seven habits/quirks/facts about yourself.
B. Tag seven people to do the same.
C. Do not tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag "whoever wants to do it."

God, that is hard. I’m just so un-special... Okay, let’s see what I can come up with...

1) I like the Grand Prix (Eurovision Song Contest) ridiculously much. I watch it almost religiously. It’s one of the high points of my years. Every year a friend (and sometimes her family), my mother and I get together and make lots of food from the host country. It’s quite a happening. Whenever I tell people how much I like it, they tell me how lame I am. :/

2) I almost exclusively wear skirts. I tried wearing trousers sometime last year, but I just didn’t like it. The only exceptions are walking around home with old man style pyjama trousers.

3) Sometimes I just get really excited about words. When I like how they sound, I try to subtly work them into my coversations. Today it was "jetzt"... it wasn’t very hard. ;)

4) I really like to watch "stupid" TV shows. Sometimes on a meta level, but sometimes just out of fun. For example I don’t think I ever missed a show of "Schlag den Raab". It just reminds me of old times, when I was little and watched the 100.000 Mark Show.

5) I was once really good at table tennis because I went to an after school care thing and we had a phase when we’d play nothing else. :) Sadly, I lost all skill. Dammit.

6) Another "uncool" thing I really like are anthems. Some are just so pretty! Since I never liked the German one all that much I was so happy when I found out Hessen had its own and it was pretty and about nature! Later I discovered some Nazi band had also recorded a version of it, and ever since I feel slightly guilty for liking it which I suppose I shouldn’t...

7) Often Sometimes I think in English. Which I suppose is weird. But I only ever notice it when my brain stumble about thoughts I don’t know the vocabulary to.


Okay, so I hope that was interesting? Oh, tagging! I really don’t like forcing people, umm... so you don’t have to, if you don’t want to. I’d like to see the answers from isegrim_chan, curiousfunk, ai_chi, luna_glass_wall, sixtht, night_songs_93 and seelentherapie. :)

And another meme I got from robtengel, just because it’s so cute. ♥

reply to this post, and I'll tell you one reason why I like you.
then put this in your own journal, and spread the love.


ETA: Also, I am so sorry that I'm not replying just now and don't comment! I just can't find the time! Stupid philological studies. :/

*is sad* It's the Sherlock Holmes one, but it's currently full of sixteen year olds going "OMFFFFFFFFFG! Robert Downey Jr!" which makes me weep D¦

Ah well, I shall hammer on. The DA boys haven't had a spin for a while now >:D

Ah, the movie... Have you seen it? I haven't yet since I'm afraid my image I built ever since I first listened to The Hound of the Baskervilles (when I was nine or ten...) will be crushed! I haven't even been brave wnough yet to pick up the Complete Sherlock Holmes I got for Christmas...
But they can't surely all be as bad?

You shall indeed. ;)

It was one of the worst films I've seen in years. Not only was it a shit Sherlock Holmes adaptation, but it was just a shit film. Boring, predictable, historically inaccurate and what's worse is that Brad Pitt has been cast as Moriarty in the sequels ;_; Practically everyone posting in the fandom at the moment is going "I haven't read any of the books or seen any other films, so this is based on the RDJ film". Nooooooooooo...

[urania-chan.livejournal.com]

Urgh... I don't really know if I should see it. :/ I wanted to reread everything before I did, but I just don't have enough time... :/ So you say I'll miss nothing if I skip it? Hn.
The fact that there are gonna be seguels (esp. ones including Brad Pitt) is both new and annoying to me.
Maybe you should just stick around? This type loses interest rather fast.

I got my ticket to the cinema bought for me, but I felt so guilty about neither of us enjoying it that I paid it back. There's a new series coming out here in the summer where the characters will be set in our time, so I'm very curious about it as the writers working on it have produced some of my all-time favourite shows but as for the Guy Richie films, well I won't be adding them to my collection u_u If you do see it, don't bother reading the canon before, the film is so simple and dull that you don't need to know anything about Holmes to watch it.

I hope they all fall out of love with Holmes. It a "flavour of the month", I guess. They'll catch onto the next big thing when it rolls around.

But when I know canon and hate the film at least I can point out all inaccuracies...
A British one? That's make chances for it being on TV here very slim. Gah.

Well, good luck with that. :/

Thing is, almost every single adaptation there has ever been of Holmes has been off-canon, so I wasn't that bothered about them ruining it in that film (even though they completely forgot to mention that Watson is a writer and Holmes' biographer), but they messed with historical and physical facts. There's a stupid chase scene where they run from the Houses of Parliament to Tower Bridge. They are almost three miles apart in real life! They also didn't explain why both houses in Parliament were sitting together (you'd NEVER see that unless it was the opening of Parliament, which it obviously wasn't because if it was, the Queen would have been there u_u). Sorry for the rant XD But it breaks my heart!

I'm sure the series will come out on DVD ;) Or it might be shown. I think some of their other work has been shown abroad.

What always annoy me that the "impossible" scenes would be quite easy to avoid if film makers bothered...

We will see, just tell me if it's any good when it's out. :)
